Sauce Hockey's vision is to be the industry leader in the lifestyle apparel category. We create design-driven clothing that offers a superior consumer experience. Inspired by hockey, art, fashion, and music, our products tell a story that takes you to a familiar place as a fan and/or player. It's simple, genuine, honest, and often times showcases the lighter side of the game. Founded in 2009 over some tall beers and hockey war stories, the brand has grown from 6 t-shirts and 2 hats to a head-to-toe brand sold in over 200 retail stores in the US, Canada, Finland, and Sweden. Sauce Hockey clothing has appeared at events such as the NHL Awards in Las Vegas, Wayne Gretzky’s Fantasy Camp, been spotted in print and web publications such as ESPN The Magazine, The Hockey News, The Fourth Period, Chill Magazine, Arizona Rubber Magazine, Cedar Rapids Gazette, Le Journal de Montreal, and CBS Sports Online among others and worn by tons of big name professional athletes, actors, actresses, musicians and tv personalities. Are you living the #saucelife?
